Go Ahead, Just Shoot Me Right Now

Dick Cheney, October 2003:

"Last November, the U.N. Security Council passed a unanimous resolution finding Iraq in material breach of its obligations, and vowing serious consequences in the event Saddam Hussein did not fully and immediately comply. When Saddam Hussein failed even then to comply, our coalition acted to deliver those serious consequences."

Dick Cheney, October 2007:

"The Iranian regime needs to know that if it stays on its present course, the international community is prepared to impose serious consequences."
